Florence Falls

FF
It was hot, nary a breeze, humid and very quiet birdwise. We spent a great deal of time soaking in the cold river above the falls. We were lucky to see a few old friends and amazed with the amount of flowering going on and a genuine lack of honey eaters. I even saw a Five Banded Italian Bee working one of the early morning flowers. Where did they come from?
